Review on ๐Ÿš€ KYB 349151 Excel-G Gas Shock - Black: Unmatched Performance and Durability by Jordan Ford

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The shock is decent but the top holes are tricky

Installed on a 2011 Honda Pilot. I've probably fitted shock absorbers to a few dozen cars over the years, so I know how complicated suspension parts can be. They were difficult to install on the top bracket - the screw holes are too close together. One of the two is a bit elongated (perhaps to accommodate other applications), but even then it was the hardest part of the install. I've made others that have 2 holes cut all the way through - I don't know why it wouldn't work here or why they just didn't make them a millimeter or two wider. As for the rest - it looks well built and a solid damper. OEM lasted almost 10 years. I'll be happy if they last half the time.

Pros
  • a handy touch
Cons
  • I will add later
